in In my home (includes DIY) MoneySaving
I'm in the process of trying to find flooring for my new kitchen dining area- thinking about laying Karndean Travertine vinyl as an alternative to the real stuff.

Any ideas about how much it costs to fit? per m2

not planning on any fancy borders.

Live in Midlands near Coventry.

Thanks

Luke

    This is very expensive stuff, however, I got around the strict supply codes they adhere to by registering my busines account with them and thus accessing their discounts!

    Actually looking to buy some off ebay that works out at about 13 pounds per m2.

    Thats why I was wondering about the fitting!

    I got 5 boxes of the stuff I told you about. Each box has 4.59sq/m in it. Thats about 22'ish sq/m I think. Paid £8sq/m for it.
    This will cost me around £400 to have fitted. :eek:
    I've got concrete floors..so they will have to be screeded before laying the stuff. Price includes screed/glue/and a 1" bead for the surround. Plus, we are having it layed diagonally...so theres a lot more cutting to do.

    Expect to pay £15 per square metre. That's without borders, fitters charge extra for that cos it's so fiddly :)
    Bulletproof
